this image was taken mid-June a few years ago... now, granted, this plant is roughly 25yrs old... so it is HUGE.
by the end of the summer, half of the gate was covered too.

last year i chopped it back and re- "trained" it so it didnt cover the gate, and it fills in more of the north side - where it is open in this photo.

I think too, if you were to do Morning Glories... those too will need to be trained... they will go up as high as they have a place to climb. 20+' i believe.

I have them in the corner of my yard, blocking the view of the 'electrical box' that is in my neighbors yard.
